We Used to Live Here Summary

We Used to Live Here by Marcus Kliewer

You let them back in.
You shouldn't have...


Young couple Charlie and Eve cant believe the killer deal they got on an old house in a beautiful yet remote neighbourhood nestled deep in the mountains. One day, theres a knock at the door. A man stands there with his family, claiming to have lived there years before and asking if it would be alright if he showed his kids around. People pleaser to a fault, Eve lets them in.

As soon as the family enters their home, strange things start to happen, and Eve wants nothing more than for them to leave and never come back. But they cant or wont take the hint that they are no longer welcome.

Then Charlie suddenly vanishes, and Eve begins to lose her grip on reality. Shes convinced theres something terribly wrong with the house and its past inhabitants . . . or is it all in her head?

The Turn of the Key meets Parasite in this gripping, eerily haunting debut and Reddit hit soon to be a Netflix original movie starring Blake Lively that will keep you up into the early hours. Perfect for fans of Stephen King and Leave the World Behind.

We Used to Live Here Reviews

Inventive and genuinely scary, We Used to Live Here is the most impressive horror debut I've read in a long time. Marcus Kliewer is a talent to watch. * Alma Katsu, author of The Fervor *
There is a feeling that a small number of books conjure. It can be distilled to: Oh god, something aint right here. Their hallmark is a creeping, unaccountable, jangly dread that seeps into their pages until you almost wish you could stop readingbut of course, its too late. Youre in its grip. We Used to Live Here is one of those rare books. * Nick Cutter, bestselling author of The Troop *
This book is like quicksand: the further you delve into its pages, the more immobilized you become by the spiral of terror that takes over you when you know nothing seems what it is... Is a family really a family? Can a house be something else? We Used to Live Here is going to haunt you even after you have finished it. This is what I call a great book. * Agustina Bazterrica, author of Tender Is the Flesh *
Kliewers debut is an atmospheric nightmare in all the best ways. The pace is pulse-pounding, but the horror aspects are deliciously dragged out. This is recommended for fans of intricately plotted psychological novels, such as those by Stephen King, Ruth Ware and Sarah Pinborough. * Booklist *
A devilish debut. What begins as mildly uncomfortable grows full-tilt terrifying. Stringing the whole thing together is Kliewers gift for atmosphere and wicked sense of humor. This is a winner. * Publisher's Weekly *
